币界网报道：Kraken has partnered with Dutch neobank BUX to integrate cryptocurrency services directly into traditional banking platforms, allowing seamless crypto purchases and trading for European users. The collaboration enables BUX customers to buy, sell, and hold digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum through the neobank’s app without needing a separate exchange account. Kraken will serve as the crypto infrastructure provider, ensuring regulatory compliance and security. BUX CEO Yorick Naeff emphasized the growing demand for accessible crypto solutions, while Kraken’s Europe MD Alexander Höptner highlighted the importance of bridging traditional finance with digital assets. The integration is expected to roll out in early 2024, initially targeting BUX’s user base in the Netherlands before expanding across Europe. This move aligns with broader industry trends of fintech and crypto convergence, simplifying access for retail investors.
